Review: MUA Ever After Matte Palette

MUA, Ever After matte palette, eyehsadow, nudes,

I much prefer matte nudes to shimmers so I decided to pick up this Ever After palette from MUA as it is one of very few that focuses only on matte colours. It ranges from creams and soft pinks to deep chocolate browns.

As you can see from the swatches, the colours aren't ultra pigmented but it does a decent job for the price. It's also suitable for anyone looking for a slightly more subtle and natural look. I've found some of the shades quite useful for filling in my eyebrows without making them look too drawn on.

I really like that it has several paler cream shades (Unwrap, Butter and Bare) as I tend to use these the most in nude palettes. I also love that it has a deep, black/brown shade for a smokey look. I probably won't use the blue-grey shade, Fog, and always wonder why nude palettes often include a shade like this as I would never mix greys with browns! The compact itself is pretty cheap looking and doesn't have a mirror.

MUA have made a name for themselves being a budget brand but still with a decent quality. This Ever After palette makes no exception at just £4. I'd say it's a worthy purchase and useful in a make up collection, but I wouldn't limit myself to just this palette.

  1. Some of the colors are very similar to the Undressed palette, but with a matte effect of course... great versatile shades :o) Xx
